# Gray Code Counter

This orientation to the Logisim libraries concludes with a fairly sophisticated Gray code counter that allows the user to alter its current value using the Poke Tool and to place a label on the component using the Text Tool. It also customizes the icon that appears in the explorer, associated with the tool.
